VO2Based Fitness Testing
VO2 is the rate of oxygen uptake, or consumption, measured
during exercise. The maximum rate of oxygen uptake is called
the VO2max or maximum VO2. VO2max is the ultimate measure
of fitness and is reported in milliliters of oxygen per kilogram
of body weight per minute or ml/Kg/min. To achieve a high
VO2max, a person must have a fit heart and lungs and significant
lean muscle mass that is well conditioned. The table below
shows how fitness is assessed based on VO2max.
